How to Keep Your Passion for Christ
Has your spiritual life been boring or dull? Has the getting into the Word of God been a struggle?
I think for a lot of Believers this has been or is a reality in their lives. We can sit in Church and listen to a sermon, and maybe be excited about it for a couple of days or so. Although after a couple of days we seem to slip back into a rut with our relationship with Christ.
The reason for this is gaining knowledge without application is unfulfilling and boring.
The Word of God is supposed to be absorbed THEN applied!
That is how God designed it. We can know all there is to know about the Word, but if it’s not applied then it’s rather pointless.
Think of it like this. If I was given a task to make a sandwich and I read the sandwich bible, went to sandwich seminars, I absorbed all there is to know about making a delicious sandwich, the ingredients and the tools I needed were all provided for this task.
But be ye doers of the Word… James 1:22
Now if I just did nothing with all that information I got, I would look pretty ridiculous not to mention sandwichless.
You see God is looking for someone to produce and bear fruit.
John 15:8 says “Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.” Don’t just hear the Word, but do it and produce with it!
Then you’ll be excited not only to spend time with God but to see Him be glorified through you!
